Or you can put the picture in the background of the frame, it has been a
while since I used PPT 2000, select the frame, click on paint bucket icon in
the drawing toolbar, choose Fill effects, select picture tab, browse to your
picture, insert it, OK.

It sounds like your pic's are just too big in size,
but, if you select the pic. then grab one of the corner handles you can then
make it any size you want.
